LeBron’s Florida MVP Mansion

NBA star LeBron James‘ eye-popping Florida mansion is still up for grabs after hitting the market last fall, after the former Miami Heat player signed a two-year, $42 million contract and moved back to his hometown to play for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Apart from six bedrooms and nine baths, the waterfront, tropical mansion features a sizable kitchen, wine cellar, office, theater, and an oversized rooftop sun deck accessible via its posh master suite. Outside sits an infinity pool, an outdoor kitchen, and a boat dock large enough to accommodate two mega yachts, along with a detached guesthouse. Previously listed at $17 million, the 12,178-square-foot digs’ price tag has recently been reduced to $15 million.

Santa Barbara Coastline Views

Sited on a high ridge overlooking Santa Barbara, this newly-constructed home—now asking $9.5 million—rests on a private 160-acre swath with views of the city, the Pacific Ocean, and the Santa Ynez Mountains.

The home’s custom-designed glass walls open its interior to 360-degree views and soft breezes, making it a peaceful retreat and a great stop for entertaining. Boasting 4,800 square feet of living space comprised of four bedrooms and five baths, the home is made up of four structures: the main house, a guesthouse, a pool cabana, and a walled utility yard. Its master bath features a Japanese-style soaking tub and steam shower, while it’s chef’s kitchen has two Miele dishwashers, a SubZero fridge and freezer, a wine cooler, and a Gaggenau oven. An infinity-edged pool with ocean views lies out back.

The 7,452-square-foot home features huge glass walls and terraces visible from nearly every room. Five bedrooms lie on the residence’s first floor including its master bedroom, alongside a great room, a wood-burning fireplace, marble baths, a dining area, and a gourmet kitchen.

New additions to the home by designer Robert Sweet—who also tore out interior walls and cabinetry in order to create a more free-flowing layout—include a second wing, a fountain entry, and a pool.
